Am I going too far with the Brownie love? Maybe. Do I regret it? Nope.
I promise some totally different recipes on the blog soon. Wouldn’t want to bore or scare away the anti-chocolate people. If you guys would exist. But seriously, let me know if you hate chocolate. That way I can adapt my recipes to your needs and come closer to my goal of world satisfaction 😉 Oh wait, am I supposed to say world peace now?

Anyways, chocolate it is. But not just any kind of chocolate. Trying different things with my classic (and super delicious) Brownie recipe, I came across a Coconut version! It is such a good combo! My family and colleagues can agree on this one 🙂

These Coconut Brownies have that oey-goey Brownie combined with the exotic taste of coconut. Yumm! Some said it tasted a bit like Bounty, others made a link with coconut macaroons dipped in chocolate. Which is pretty similar I guess. What’s more important is the foolproof factor of this recipe. I really don’t think you can do anything wrong with it. It also doesn’t take that much time to prepare. Although it has to bake for about hour…

What we need (+- pieces):

Brownie batter

250 g butter

350 g dark chocolate

250 g dark brown sugar

3 eggs

80 g self-raising flour

Coconut batter

250 g coconut shavings

4 egg whites

4 tablespoons of caster sugar

200 ml heavy cream

1 bag of vanilla sugar

Things we need

squared baking pan

parshment paper

How to:

Brownie batter

Put the butter and the chocolate in a bowl and melt it using the microwave (sessions of 30 seconds)

Mix together sugar and eggs

Add the melted butter-chocolate mixture

Sift the flour and mix it all together

Put a piece of parshment paper in the baking tin and fill with brownie batter

Coconut batter

Mix all ingredients together

Coconut Brownie

Preheat the oven at 180°C

Put the coconut batter on the brownie batter

Use a knife to make lines as if you were making a marble cake. This will get the coconut both on top as inside the brownie

Bake for about 1 hour

Check with a sharp knife. It should cone out clean.

Leave it to cool for a bit before taking it out to cool on a rack

The brownie can be a bit too fudgy when you cut it but it will get better if you leave it for a few hours.
